A. By middle, I meant simply part of the russian territory.
B. The USSR had over 100 distinct ethnic groups, with only one of them killing school kids. What's your point?
C. There's all sorts of natinalities living in all sorts of nations. Does that mean they're all entitled to carve out their own country within the borders of the countries that they populate?
As regards B. The Russians have been killing Chechen civilians, including children, for the last ten years. Do you expect the Chechens to just accept that?
As regards C. It is generally accepted that distinctive ethnic groups living in their own territory have a right to their own state, especially if they have been forcibly incorporated into the state they are living in now.
